I'm just venting a bit but all of this is fact based. I was at a state school (PWI) before I transferred to an HBCU on a military scholarship. Bear in mind in order to accept the scholarship and ultimately pursue the military career I wanted, I had to finish my last 2 years at an HBCU.
I'm a little dissatisfied with a few things:
-Lack of funding. There's no gym. We were allowed to use anoother gym down there street but a fight broke out, and now everyone from my school is banned. Even though we pay an athletic/gym fee
-Mf's here blatantly skip class for 3-6 weeks at a time. Why pay 30k a year to not go to class?
and then when we do have to do some work i.e. Writing a 1-3 page paper, these same people are complaining like the professors are pulling teeth. At the state school the black pop was like 45%, but if you were fukking around academically, the other black people there would sort of distance themselves from you. -Overcharging for dorms
-I rarely get emails in my student email account. On the rare occasion I get a reminder to vote for SGA or something. No reminders for internships or job fairs. But I get an email for the Que cookout we had last Sunday
-Administraion losing documents for W/e reason
-People are scheduled to graduate one semester then they "magically" need 2 more classes to graduate aka the school wants them to stay longer so they can get more money
-Before I even came I had to get some documents signed by my (soon to be) major chair of the program I'm in..this woman took 6 months to sign 2 pieces of paper. Then acted like I was harassing her when I called to check on it, when I had to turn the necessary paperwork to my boss
-Students more worried about Greek life, running for SGA, etc then actual work. Like wtf man. Ive gotten some draws but yo in the grand scheme of things that's a small part of the equation..you can always get draws if you decent looking but I have a problem with these schools being poorly ran and they try to cover it up under the guise of "We need HBCU's" well Shii I agree. I also stand by what I've noticed in the time I've spent at one
I'm not bashing HBCU's but It's just frustrating..I feel like they're robbing students smh charging 30k a year and Shii don't even work right or run smoothly.
